The World Now

Voice of George Bush [Translated from the Arabic voice-over]: I thought the Israeli actions were not helpful in terms of the establishment and the development of the institutions necessary for a Palestinian state to emerge.

Announcer: The United States and the Arab world in global politics and news from world capitals.

Reporter: The Palestinian leadership endorsed the U.N. Security Council resolution.

Tony Blair: We need a new conference on the Middle East peace process based on the twin principles of a secure Israel and a viable Palestinian state.

Announcer: Will Iraq change its previous view of not allowing inspections?

And will belly dancers disclose hidden secrets? Hello listeners. Here are the details.

The Israeli newspaper Yediot Aharanot reported that, according to sources in Sharon’s office, Israel is studying the matter and taking Bush’s calls [to end the siege of Yasser Arafat's headquarters] seriously. The Israeli newspaper did not offer further details, but it mentioned Bush’s comment that Israeli actions do not help in creating Palestinian institutions and also do not increase hope for the other side.

An advisor for Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, said that he does not expect the Palestinian Authority will heed calls by the U.N. Security Council to hand over armed individuals for justice. For this reason, Israel has no reason to heed the U.N. resolution calling for the lifting of the siege on Yasser Arafat. He added that the Palestinian Authority does not consider them terrorists, but instead assists them. So Israel will not abide by the resolution alone. Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat affirmed that the Palestinian Authority will abide with all aspects of the resolution, and invited the international community to encourage Israel to fulfill the withdrawal and lift the siege.

As the United Nations is ready to send inspectors to Iraq, the United States and Britain are calling the world community to tighten international measures under which inspections will be conducted. Secretary of State Colin Powell said that if those rules are not changed, the inspectors will be delayed and new obstacles will be placed in their path.

He said that the Iraqi's stance is characterized by dishonesty and stall tactics calculated to tie inspectors' hands. He does not expect any change in Iraqi policy in this regard.
